Summer of Color 2014- week one

Week one is over and I had so much fun creating art in this color scheme:

I had a little trouble with the hot pick color as it's not usually a color I gravitate towards, but I managed to find a bit to add to the two pieces I did this week.

The first piece I made was a fabric art piece. I hand-sewed the little quilt-let and then attached it to a lace covered canvas painted a a warm yellow with hints of pink added while wet. I love mixing the fabric and paint medias together so much!

If you want to play along there are quite a few more weeks to go! Just click on the button on the right hand side bar to take you to the website that will tell you all about it! AND You can find many more sites to visit with artwork in any medium you can imagine using this color scheme this week. I had so much fun doing this and can't wait to find out what the color scheme will be for next week!!!

Oh, I like them both. I have been using some scraps of lace in my art work ---it was handmade in Brazil when I lived there over 40 years ago and I forgot I had it until I was searching for something else. I was glad to see I'm not the only one to use lace.

For some reason I can't view your second picture here but I saw it on your google+ page. Both pieces are beautiful. I love the combination of paper, textile and stitch but haven't done any textile work for ages.

More wisdom from Pooh Bear~

"Well," said Pooh, "What I like BEST", and then he had to stop and think about it. Because, although eating honey was a very GOOD thing to do, there was a moment, right before you began eating, that was better than after you began... but he didn't know what it was called.

"If ever there is a tomorrow when we're not together... there is something you must ALWAYS remember. You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think. But the MOST important thing is, even if we're apart... I'll ALWAYS be with you."
